1017 rears its ugly head again

[Sartori]

Apparently you guys don't read else you would have known that the quite below is correct.. Stop freaking out this is intentional when servers come up after maint...

So.....Is it intentional for me not to be able to leave my Inn room?

[Ivy_Blackrose]

WTF how the hell is this error back again? come ON SE seriously what is the problem here why cant you get this issue fixed for once and for all? I can understand a problem like this popping up in 1997 during the beginning of the MMORPG era but now in 2013? get real.....get this fixed all ready THANK YOU.

your servers should be MORE than capable of handling a few hundred or a few thousand players in this day and age.... there shouldnt be any stress on the servers than any other game at this point. I mean seriously EVE hosts what 35000 players per server? if not more

[Sartori]

Yep, same here. Couldn't leave my inn room, relogged, world full....I guess they need to add some worlds again lol

Yupppp. Goodness SE. The only thing i can hope is it's because there are a million people bombarding their servers.

[Edyth]

Yippee! Best maintenance ever!

[Kesac]

Most likely it's because only 500 people can be queued at once, and since the servers aren't up everyone's bombarding that 500-person queue. Once the servers come up 1017 should disappear quickly....(Note: I just got a queue on Balmung, 79 people....let's hope it doesn't go to error 90000....)

EDIT: In game now

Yup I'm getting it on Leviathan for the first time since two weeks ago but I agree it must be because it's right after maintenance .

ITT: people who don't understand that an error code is not a bug to be fixed, but a symptom of an occurring issue (hint: that issue is login throttling, and working as intended)

[AlmaMalma]

So, after the expected deduction in players once the charges came in, SE have reduced the number of active signons.... but too low. GG SE. Still, they got our moneys for signing on for 30 or more days. Mug {you can have this}.

If maintenance didn't happen during PRIME TIME then there wouldn't be a million people shoving themselves into the login server at once.
